Over all i am quite happy with this patch.
just small complaint with few nerfs of ships and the new shields for the destroyers over all good!
The Ellydium ships are finally easier to craft but the twist is the leveling, this in my opinion is great!
the downside of this is that players are spamming the trade chat with all the parts for ships and ask for the 300 GS. Knowing for a fact that no one is going to spend money.
bringing us to my next statement.
The trade system is for the most part working however not everyone is using it because there is not enough GS in circulation even F2P (free to play) players and Paying players cant buy the parts they need because either people are asking a lot of GS (2000 to 3000) for one part or no one “Online has it”. How can we Solve this problems? Here is my suggestions.
1.- Selling parts E.g Alien cabin parts or Stock ships parts (Exterior structures) Etc. to the NPC / server in exchange for iridium. This resource is key for the player Driven trading system because if players cant open the caches then there is no posting, No posting means others players cant buy that specific part therefore No GS is spent and the trading system seizes to work. The current amount obtained in post search loot if you do all missions is around in a rank 15 ship 500 to 600 iridium which not all players can do. using that amount lets you open 2 to 3 caches.
By Doing this players will stop spamming the chat with easily obtainable parts provide more opportunities to open caches for other parts that players are interested in buying.
2.- Allow offers to stay online even if the player is offline. this is self explanatory i post a blueprint and stays there for 12 or 24 hours and players can go offline, instead of being force to stare at the trading chat for hours waiting for someone willing to pay for that part. this will also get rid off a common problem called the… Language Barrier !!
3.- To help guide players in the trading you could add statistical data of previous trades from different players and show for how much GS the part was traded for, similar to the steam community market. this will prevent new players from buying parts for 3000 GS not knowing that is a scam (most experienced players will agree with me on this).
I am happy with the addition of monocrystal to the broker mission Thank you Devs.
Mineral box was a nice addition as well
